This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

take the ark of the Lord, and lay it upon the cart - This mode of carrying the sacred symbol was forbidden; but the ignorance of the Philistines made the indignity excusable (see on 2Sa 6:6).

put the jewels ... in a coffer by the side thereof - The way of securing treasure in the East is still in a chest, chained to the house wall or some solid part of the furniture.
